New ALIEN box set vs. The Old???
Sooo, I have the original ALIEN set and my husband and I are big fans of the franchise, so we're planning on buying the new set. To those whom know, is there a good reason to keep the original boxed set? In other words, are there any extras in the original release that they chose to omit in the new set? Thanks for your help!

Thank you, asianxcore, unfortunately that link didn't help a lot, although it does alude to easter eggs no in the new set. I did a search on ALIEN QUADRILOGY in the forum and went back to 12/31/03 without success. I wish I had time to read through all these posts but with a husband, 2 small children and an infant to care for, I just don't have the time to read all these posts. I apologise to those offended individuals for taking space in the forum. Is there a kind soul who could briefly recap the benefits of keeping the original set? I really appreciate the help, thank you.

You'll be able to hear Ridley Scott talk about 'Alien' alone, instead of with a crowd of people
You'll be able to see an interview with James Cameron all together, instead of cut up
You won't have to shell out $50-$75 (or more) to buy movies you already have.
Also, if you have the fifth disc, 'Alien Legacy', that's not on the new version.
The new versions are superior in every way, though, that's the thing.
